Greatest moments in YOUR gaming history!

For me, Shogun MP, of course. It was a rare 4v4 that didn't lag, a lightly foggy battle on the Horselands map, with talented players on both sides, and two of my 47Ronin buddies teaming with me. I managed over 1500 kills, the most I ever got in a MP game, as we repulsed a very nasty attack which caught us off guard in the fog, and turned it around. I think I had less than 200 men left at the end. It was an extremely exciting game; at several points it seemed one side would win, but then someone would do something epic and the tide would turn. Ah, the glory days.

Runner-up was a neighborhood competition among friends, playing the original Soul Calibur on the Sega Dreamcast. There were 16 of us, all caught up in the SC thing that was the craze when it first came out. Most of them hadn't seen me play, but I'd seen most of them play (I'd hang out after work and watch; but often declined to play because I was so tired; I observed closely though ...). Using Mitsurugi, Taki, Siegfried, and Cervantes, I blasted my way into the final match. Then I played my hidden ace, and won the competition with my favorite freak. "VOOOOOLDO WINS!!," heh. It was quite a fun weekend.

The most shameful moment was in 6th grade. I had a ~200 wins, 20 losses record on the chess team. Ten of those twenty losses were to one other player, our second ranker. Our school arranged a tournament with a nearby elementary school. I was defeated soundly in two games back to back and eliminated early in the match by an extraordinary player from the other school, their number one. It was so embarrassing. He just stomped me. I didn't play much chess after that.

thats not so bad. i once went on a 12 death streak in BF2142. the worst part about it is the average death streak was 5-6 and the fact that i got the 12 death streak is displayed prominently on my stat page. plus i got 6 purple hearts, which means you got a .25 kdr in a round. shame on me.

Hmm quite difficult to say. One of them would probably be killing Kael'Thas for the first time in World of Warcraft. At the time he was the hardest boss in the game and even now is widely considered as one of the most epic fights designed. My guild spent several weeks learning the encounter and killing him was a great feeling of satisfaction, the culmination of months of teamwork.

We did have a movie of it (with ventrilo recorded!) but it seems to have died with Stage6 sadly
